Expensive fun

Michael_M, Mar 2023

The views were awesome. Next time I will book directly with the company as it's $100 cheaper if I do that. Doors off would be best as the glare of the window results in bad pictures depending on angle. The pilot was cool. Great experience overall.

Molokai & Maui from the Air

Eduardo_A, Mar 2023

Molokai cliffs and waterfalls, seeing two whales over the channel. Pilot very friendly and personable, explained what we were seeing

Hawaii from a Birds eye

Tony_S, Mar 2023

Our Pilot and guide Felix was awesome, great knowledge of the islands and great skills flying the chopper. By far the best excursion we have done, and after 8 days we have completed them all. Keep in mind if you use this app to book and click on the directions it will take you to the wrong place. So use google until the app service gets that fixed. We would definitely recommend this and ask for Felix.

Way cool

Dan_R, Mar 2023

Wow, once in a lifetime views of the Maui and Molokai mountains, even caught a whale sighting on the way back. Final approach into the heliport was a great finale.

Views were amazing!

Our Captain was awesome and our tour was amazing. Both 5 stars. Taking pictures doesn't do the beauty justice.

Magical Scenery

Alexandra_B, Dec 2022

The value of this trip for us was that we got to see magical parts of Hawaii that can’t be accessed any other way. The scenery was spectacular.

Awe inspiring and breathtaking sights

Gracie_M, Dec 2022

From take-off to landing I enjoyed every bit of this tour. I think it helped that I had a window seat up front with the pilot :) Check-in was a breeze and all the staff were friendly and welcoming. The waiting area outside, like most on the island, featured a waterfall that was like a mini-preview of what was to come. Our pilot/tour guide, Nick was well-versed in the history of the islands and great at conveying the wonder. You could tell that he really loved his job. Really a great tour that I would highly recommend.

Exceeded expectations by far

Jackie_E, Nov 2022

Far exceeded our expectations! Loved flying through the valley, seeing the waterfalls & then up over the high peak. Our pilot Nick was so enjoyable & informative! Would highly recommend this adventure.

Phyllis_A, Nov 2022

An awesome trip. Would absolution another one. Probably longer. Beforehand there they took à photos. Can we purchase?

More expensive than other helicopter tours but worth it for the experience of seeing so much more at Molokai

Louis_B, Oct 2022

We saw tons of waterfalls that the pilot said were temporary due to the recent rains. We also saw a 360 degree rainbow which was incredible. The sites you get to see at Molokai, which are only accessible by helicopter, make it worth the trip.

Fantastic views, pilot made sure that everyone had plenty of time to view each area, turning the helicopter to ensure everyone could see.

Breathtaking views of Maui and Molokai Islands

Vivian_H, Sep 2022

I traveled to Maui for my wedding anniversary and I have to say the helicopter ride was the highlight of our trip. The pilot (Felix) was an amazing host and gave us great explanations as we flew over the mountains. Breathtaking views of Maui and Molokai, I fully recommend it!
